Chapter 54 The Sorcerer's Stone Incident

Dumbledore lost the gorgeous clothes he wore at the opening banquet, and walked over in a brown robe.

"Professor Dumbledore."

The two were about to get up in a hurry, but Dumbledore stopped them with his hand and said, "Don't get up, children, you need to rest, oh..."

As he spoke, he glanced at the presents on the bedside of the two, and said with a smile, "Are these gifts from admirers?"

"Worshiper?"

Kevin Harry didn't understand what that meant.

Dumbledore explained: "The thing about you and Professor Quirrell in the basement is a secret, but the secret always spreads, so the whole school knows that you fought against the bad guys to protect the Philosopher's Stone."

"How's Hermione and Ron?" Kevin asked.

Dumbledore said: "Don't worry, your friends are very healthy. They have completed the tasks you assigned them excellently and were discharged from the hospital earlier than you. But you must know that Madam Pomfrey controls everything in the school infirmary. She doesn't like Someone disturbed the wounded here, so they've left."

Hearing this, the two were relieved, and then Harry asked, "Where is the Philosopher's Stone?"

"Don't worry." Dumbledore said, "It has been destroyed."

Kevin and Harry were taken aback when they heard the words. The thing they and others almost risked their lives to protect was destroyed? !Then why didn't Mao destroy it early?

Dumbledore always seemed to know what people were thinking, and he said: "You don't need to be surprised and sorry about this. Although the Philosopher's Stone can extend Nick's life, I talked to him about your matter and finally agreed. Thought it would be best to destroy it, after all it was very important to Voldemort and you stopped him."

"What about Nicole Flamel?" Kevin asked.

Dumbledore sat on Harry's hospital bed and said, "Don't worry, he has enough elixir to take care of his funeral. Sometimes some things we think are good are not as good as we imagined. Immortality is one of them. , Watching friends and relatives keep leaving, immortality is a kind of torture."

At this time Harry asked: "Professor, why did we get the Philosopher's Stone? I saw myself in the mirror taking out the Philosopher's Stone from my pocket and handing it to Kevin."

Dumbledore smiled and explained: "If you want to find the Sorcerer's Stone, only those who don't want to use it can do it. As for why you in the mirror are handed over to Kevin, it's because you trust your friends."

A flash of inspiration flashed in Kevin's mind, and he smiled: "I see! Professor, in fact, you already know about Quirrell, right? At least you know it since Harry saw the Mirror of Erised. So The Mirror of Erised is there, and the last line of defense is yours."

Dumbledore looked at Kevin appreciatively, and said, "Eli, you are smarter than your parents."

Harry nodded suddenly, and said, "No wonder you said you would send the magic mirror away. But why didn't you just do it?"

Dumbledore said: "Some things are not as natural as we think, there are too many constraints, especially the Ministry of Magic and some people have not seen definite evidence. And the most important point, killing life, It is a grave sin in both the wizarding world and the Muggle world."

Dumbledore's words were vague, perhaps he felt that such dark words should not be said to children, but Kevin knew exactly what he meant.Dumbledore is the best wizard alive today, but definitely not the most popular, especially in the eyes of some in the Ministry of Magic.Just like Kevin's situation before, even if Dumbledore knew that Quirrell was the one who stole the Philosopher's Stone and stopped him, would the Ministry of Magic believe it without definite evidence?

Know that politicians are sometimes right and sometimes wrong.Dumbledore is well aware of this truth, I am afraid that Dumbledore went to the Ministry of Magic the day they "passed the barrier" for this purpose.

Harry said, "What about Voldemort? He'd die without the Philosopher's Stone, right?"

Dumbledore said: "I'm afraid not, I think he will find other ways to make a comeback."

Kevin recalled the scene in the basement, and asked, "Professor, it was useless for me to hit him so many times in the basement, whether it was magic or physical attacks, but the power of Harry's punch was a bit terrifying."

Harry remembered, too, and said, "I punched him right then and there."

Dumbledore said, "That's because of your mother, Harry. She died protecting you, and that sacrifice left its mark."

Harry subconsciously wanted to touch the scar on his head, but Dumbledore said, "No, no, it's an invisible mark, Harry. It's in your body."

"What is it?" Harry asked.

"Love!" Dumbledore said with a smile: "Great maternal love."

Then he looked at Kevin with dull eyes and asked, "Kevin, what are you thinking?"

Kevin came back to his senses and said: "Sorry, Professor, I was distracted. I was thinking of any way to kill Voldemort completely, because I don't want to be targeted by such a monster. Especially when I am enjoying the current situation so much." time to live."

Dumbledore smiled and said: "You are very brave, child. But such things are not something you can ask, at least you can't now. Each of us will have our own tasks after we come to this world. Sometimes Even when we desperately want to get something done, but find we can’t, that’s fate. It’s weird, but so real.”

Kevin said: "I understand what you mean, but who can see through fate? How can you know if you don't try? Of course, I have always been very disinterested in dying."

"But often willing to try," Harry said with a smile.

"Hehe!" Dumbledore laughed, "Yes, you are right. Young people are always adventurous. Well, I think you need to rest, I should go, or Madam Pomfrey will arrest me." kicked out."

Harry stood up suddenly and said, "Professor, I have another question about Professor Snape."

Dumbledore said quietly: "I know what you want to ask. He and your father did not like each other at the beginning, a bit like you and Mr. Malfoy. Later, your father did something that Snape will never forgive his business."

"Stealed his girlfriend?" Kevin said.

Harry said dissatisfiedly: "How is it possible, don't interrupt, Kevin."

Dumbledore smiled and said, "Your father saved Snape."

"Huh?" Both of them were surprised by such an answer, Dumbledore said, "Yes, you heard me right, Snape couldn't forgive James for saving him."

"But why?" Harry asked.

Dumbledore said: "The human mind is indeed very wonderful, isn't it? Snape couldn't bear to owe your father such favors. I believe that the reason why he tried to protect you this year was because he felt that this Make him even with your father, no one owes anyone else. Then he can relive his hatred of your father with peace of mind."

Harry said he still couldn't understand. At this time, Kevin remembered the special care Snape took for him, and asked, "Is the relationship between him and my father the same? Actually, I never doubted Professor Snape, although he often Punish me, but I know that is actually help in disguise."

"About that..." said Dumbledore with a sly smile, "why don't you ask him yourself? Well, I really should go. Oh, are these Bibby's Beans? My young I accidentally ate a stinky one, and I’m afraid since then, I don’t like this kind of snack very much, but I think.”

He chuckled and popped the golden-brown vari-flavored bean into his mouth, and then he gasped and said, "Pooh, shit! It's earwax!"

"Ha ha!"
